Abstract

Aim. This study investigates the effects of integrating dance elements into choreographic and on-ice training programs on postural stability and technical performance in skilled figure skaters. Materials and methods. Twelve skilled figure skaters (age 11–12 years) underwent stabilometric and technical skill assessments. Postural stability was evaluated using the Stabilan-01-2 force platform via the Romberg test. Technical performance was assessed by rotational velocity and revolution count in the “spiral” and “spin” elements. Results. Post-intervention stabilometric measurements revealed a significant reduction in visual dependence in balance control and a normalized center of pressure alignment relative to the ankle joint axis. Technical performance exhibited statistically significant improvements in both rotational velocity and revolution consistency. Regression analysis demonstrated a strong predictive relationship between stabilometric parameters and technical skill enhancement (R2 = 0.99). Conclusion. The introduction of sport-specific dance elements into training regimens enhances postural control in skilled skaters by reducing reliance on visual feedback during static balance tasks; optimizing CoP distribution relative to the ankle joint axis; and improving rotational performance in figure skating elements.
